Correction - 2016 primary, not 2015 primary
Pretty good article from Sundance showing the announcement from Ted Cruz et. al., for what it is - face saving bandwagon jumping. Don’t ever be fooled by Cruz, or his fellow travelers. Cruz will always do the right thing - if political circumstances force him to do so.
Over at TheDonald.Win, the usual suspects are fawning over Cruz. The “he should be a frontrunner in 2024” narrative is very popular over there right now. But ask yourself, where has Cruz been on this issue for the past several weeks? He’s had plenty of time to announce that he would challenge the electoral college votes. Why is it only now that he comes out in favor of doing so? He’s a slickster. We’ll take his help if it’s offered, but it’s a fair bet that if he’s offering it, it’s not really needed anymore.
The only reason Cruz and his cohorts are jumping on board now is because they see which way this is headed - with them or without them. Better to get on the right side now and pretend you were leading the charge.
